CONTINUITY FUND

Our global Project             Our partners in need

The small, family farmers in the Mt. Meru region of Tanzania are insufficiently paid for their premium coffee beans, creating a cycle of poverty, poor health, lack of education and substandard quality of life. For the past 22 years, the Mt. Meru Coffee Project of the Greater Milwaukee Synod of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America has been paying these farmers a fair trade price for their beans, importing and roasting, and selling the premium coffee through congregations and online customers.

Our Partner’s Need

While the impact on improving quality of life for our partner farmers has been substantial because of the Coffee Project, our ability to continue to financially support them is has been impacted due to the pandemic.  Our congregations have not been gathering in person, resulting in a decrease in sales.  Promoting special holiday packages and offering free shipping to encourage online orders has helped move inventory, but there is a real cost to this as well.  The volume of beans imported each year can be managed, but the goal - the mission - is to maintain our support of the farmers in our partner Meru Diocese through farmer training and financial support, regardless of sales volume.

Your Help Now

Your help is needed now in order to sustain this project through the pandemic, until congregations can return to their previous level of activity.

Farmer Training

FARMER TRAINING FUND

Growing great tasting coffee requires hard work along with cultivating and processing knowledge.  The Tanzania Coffee Research Institute (TaCRI) has partnered with the Mt. Meru Coffee Project for several years to provide hands on training for our coffee growing farmers. Improved quality and quantities have resulted.

Our Partner’s Need

While the training provided by TaCRI is free, the Mt. Meru Coffee Project has provided funds to cover the costs of meals and transportation for the farmers during the three day training program.  Costs are roughly $55-$60/person, with a goal of sending 100-120 farmers annually.  Contributions have played a big part in helping us offset the costs.

Your Help Now

Your help is greatly appreciated by the farmers and the Project.
